ABSTRACT:
Ethers suitable for use as high octane oxygenate additives for motor fuels are produced in increased yields by a catalytic distillation process wherein a mixture of C.sub.5 -plus isoolefin isomers and an alcohol are charged to a catalytic distillation zone containing both etherification and double bond isomerization catalysts. Otherwise unreactive isomers are isomerized to reactive species within the zone to allow them to participate in the etherification reaction, resulting in a higher ether yield.
